CREATE A LEGACY THAT LIVES ON

A planned gift is a meaningful way to support the future of health care while creating a lasting legacy for patients and families across Newfoundland and Labrador.

A GIFT FOR THE FUTURE.

You don’t have to be wealthy to leave a meaningful legacy. Planned giving can be an option for people at many stages of life and in many financial situations.

  • Take care of the people you love first. You can provide for your loved ones while also leaving a gift to support the future of health care.
  • Stay in control. A gift in your Will can be changed or cancelled at any time.
  • Make your generosity go further. Certain planned gifts may offer valuable tax benefits for you or your estate.
  • Support what matters to you. Your gift can help fund high-priority medical equipment, technology, programs, or an area of health care that is meaningful to you.
  • Create an impact that lasts. Your generosity can help strengthen patient care in Newfoundland and Labrador for generations to come.

A planned gift is more than a future donation. It’s a reflection of what matters to you today and the difference you want to make tomorrow.
